First edition. Fine though with prev. own. sig. front pastedown, in very good dust jacket. Hardcover. 234 pp with index. In our Western civilization, there are two influential accounts of beginnings. One is the Biblical account, compiled more than two thousand years ago. The other is the account of modern science which, in the last century, has slowly built up a coherent picture of how it all began. Isaac Asimov carefully and even-handedly compares the two accounts in this line-by-line annotation of the first eleven chapters of Genesis, pointing out where they are similar, and where they are different.
